2 Chronicles 17
1 Asa’s son Jehoshaphat became the king [of Judah], and he enabled his army to become very strong, with the result that they could resist attacks from [the army of] Israel.
Yehoshafat ɗansa ya gāje shi a matsayin sarki ya kuma kahu sosai gāba da Isra’ila.
2 He put soldiers in all the cities in Judah around which they had built walls, and he put soldiers in other places in Judah and in the towns in the area belonging to the tribe of Ephraim that [soldiers of] his father Asa had captured.
Ya kafa mayaƙa a dukan biranen katangar Yahuda, ya kuma sa runduna a Yahuda da kuma a garuruwan Efraim da mahaifinsa Asa ya ci da yaƙi.
3 Yahweh helped Jehoshaphat because when he started [to rule Judah], he did the things that pleased Yahweh like his ancestor [King] David had done. He did not worship the idols of Baal.
Ubangiji kuwa yana tare da Yehoshafat domin a shekarunsa na farko-farko ya yi tafiya a hanyoyin da kakansa Dawuda ya bi. Bai nemi shawarar Ba’al ba
4 Instead, he sought advice from the God whom his father [had worshiped], and he obeyed God’s commands, and did not do the [evil things that the kings of] Israel continually did.
amma ya nemi Allah na kakansa ya kuma bi umarnansa a maimakon ayyukan da Isra’ila ke yi.
5 Yahweh enabled him to completely control his kingdom. All [the people of] Judah brought gifts to him, with the result that he became very rich and was greatly honored.
Ubangiji ya kafa mulkin a ƙarƙashin ikonsa; dukan Yahuda kuwa suka kawo kyautai wa Yehoshafat, ta haka ya yi arziki sosai da kuma girma.
6 He was completely devoted to doing what pleased Yahweh. His workers got rid of the shrines on the hilltops and the poles for [worshiping the goddess] Asherah throughout Judah.
Zuciyarsa ta duƙufa ga hanyoyin Ubangiji, bugu da ƙari, ya kawar masujadan kan tudu da ginshiƙan Ashera daga Yahuda.
7 When he had been ruling [Judah] for almost three years, he sent some of his officials—Ben-Hail, Obadiah, Zechariah, Nethanel, and Micaiah—to teach the people in various towns in Judah.
A shekara ta uku ta mulkinsa, ya aiki ma’aikatansa Ben-Hayil, Obadiya, Zakariya, Netanel da Mikahiya su yi koyarwa a garuruwan Yahuda.
8 With them he sent several descendants of Levi—Shemaiah, Nethaniah, Zebadiah, Asahel, Shemiramoth, Jehonathan, Adonijah, Tobijah, and Tob-Adonijah—and two priests, Elishama and Jehoram.
Tare da su akwai waɗansu Lawiyawa, Shemahiya, Netaniya, Zebadiya, Asahel, Shemiramot, Yehonatan, Adoniya, Tobiya da Tob Adoniya, da kuma firistoci Elishama da Yehoram.
9 They took with them a scroll on which were written the laws of Yahweh and taught them to the people in all the towns throughout Judah,
Suka yi koyarwa a dukan Yahuda, suna ɗauke da Littafin Dokar Ubangiji tare da su; suka tafi ko’ina a dukan garuruwan Yahuda suka koyar da mutane.
10 The people in all the kingdoms surrounding Judah became very afraid of [what Yahweh might do to punish them if they fought against Judah], so they did not start wars with Jehoshaphat’s army.
Tsoron Ubangiji ya kama dukan masarautun ƙasashen da suke kewaye da Yahuda, har ba su yi yaƙi da Yehoshafat ba.
11 Some people from Philistia brought gifts to Jehoshaphat, and they also brought to him the silver that he demanded that they pay to him. Some Arabs brought to him 7,700 rams and 7,700 goats.
Waɗansu Filistiyawa suka kawo wa Yehoshafat kyautai da azurfa a matsayin haraji, Larabawa kuwa suka kawo masa garkuna, raguna dubu bakwai da ɗari bakwai da kuma awaki dubu bakwai da ɗari bakwai.
12 Jehoshaphat continued to become more powerful/influential. His workers built forts and places to store supplies in various towns in Judah.
Yehoshafat ya yi ta ƙaruwa a ƙarfi; ya gina katanga da biranen ajiya a Yahuda
13 Then they put large amounts of supplies in those storehouses. Jehoshaphat also placed in Jerusalem soldiers who were experienced.
da kuma tanade-tanade masu yawa a garuruwan Yahuda. Ya kuma ajiye gogaggu mayaƙa a Urushalima.
14 The leaders and numbers from each tribe were as follows: From the tribe of Judah, Adnah was the leader of the soldiers, and he commanded 300,000 soldiers.
Ɗaukar da aka yi musu bisa ga iyalai yana kamar haka. Daga Yahuda, shugaban ƙungiya 1,000. Adna ne shugaba, tare da jarumawa 300,000;
15 His assistant was Jehohanan, who commanded 280,000 soldiers.
biye da shi, Yehohanan shi ne shugaba, yana da sojoji 280,000;
16 Next was Zicri’s son Amasiah, who volunteered to serve Yahweh in this way; he commanded 200,000 soldiers.
biye da shi, Amasiya ɗan Zikri, wanda ya ba da kansa da yardar rai don hidimar Ubangiji, yana da sojoji 200,000.
17 From the tribe of Benjamin, Eliada, who was a brave soldier, was the leader of the soldiers; he commanded 200,000 men who had bows [and arrows] and shields.
Daga Benyamin, Eliyada, jarumi soja, yana da sojoji 200,000 riƙe da baka da garkuwoyi;
18 Next was Jehozabad, who commanded 180,000 men who had weapons for fighting battles.
biye da shi, Yehozabad, yana da sojoji 18,000 shiryayyu don yaƙi.
19 Those were the soldiers who served the king [in Jerusalem], in addition to the men whom the king had placed in the other cities in Judah that had walls around them.
Waɗannan su ne suka yi wa sarki hidima, ban da waɗanda aka sa a biranen katanga ko’ina a Yahuda.
